About the Game

A Galaxy Consumed by Ancient Terror

Set in a retro-futuristic universe where humanity's colonial expansion has awakened cosmic entities beyond comprehension, Space Tales thrusts players into a web of conspiracy spanning the galaxy. As Xander, the prodigious son of a legendary commander of the IPE, you'll embark on an epic journey to uncover the sinister truth behind mankind's manipulation by ancient powers. Your strategic decisions don't just determine battlefield victory - they shape Xander's transformation from a loyal soldier to a champion of justice, freedom, and truth.

Strategic Depth That Rewards Mastery

Built for hardcore RTS enthusiasts, Space Tales delivers the tactical complexity that made classics legendary. Command an army of retro futuristic weaponry to annihilate cosmic monster and build strategic military hubs to defend against their onslaught. Master intricate base-building economics under constant pressure, optimize resource allocation across multiple strategic priorities, and execute precision unit control where positioning, timing, and micro-management separate victory from total defeat.

Every engagement rewards strategic thinking over mindless aggression. Defensive positioning matters as much as offensive capability. Reconnaissance determines tactical options. Individual unit control can turn the tide of massive battles. This is real-time strategy designed for players who appreciate intellectual challenge and tactical sophistication.


Asymmetric Tactical Warfare

Multiple distinct enemy factions each with unique combat doctrines, unit compositions, and strategic philosophies requiring completely different tactical approaches. In Space Tales, brute force attacks fail against intelligent opposition - reconnaissance, counter-strategies, and tactical flexibility determine victories. Players will need to carefully analyze to discover each faction's specific weaknesses that reward strategic exploitation over overwhelming firepower, while the enemy will continue to present dynamic threats, forcing players to constantly adapt unit positioning, resource allocation, and battle plans based on enemy faction capabilities
